Free Stuff to Help You Improve

Over the years as a teacher and player, I've found some tools that have helped students and myself improve more quickly. Some aren't directly related to the trumpet, like the glossary of terms, but most you should find pretty useful. Enjoy! Don't forget to visit the video page.

Especially useful are the Audacity tutorials. Audacity is a sweet (FREE) sound editing program that's easy to use and can be a great help to your practice.

To read and/or print PDF files you'll need the Acrobat Reader, a free program.
